Specifically, he is speaking of his human birth. As a human he decreed that he would call himself God's Son. This does not take away his status as God. Because as God, he existed before his human birth. As he said to the Jews in John 8:58: "The truth is. I existed before Abraham was even born."
At this point the Jews picked up stones to kill him because thay knew what he was saying!
I will e preaching tomorrow from the information obtain from this glorious PSALM. David may not be mentioned by many of our commentators but God is usueing him today,
I googled your first post "God the Son” in the Bible and there was a lot to read there.
Also the same as for Trinity and Rapture being used in the Bible. As for your second post I found this to be helpful: Psalm 87:2-3 says, “The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. Glorious things are said of you, O city of God.” Occurring over 150 times in the Bible, the word “Zion” essentially means “fortification.” In the Bible, Zion is both the city of David and the city of God.
As the Bible progresses, the word “Zion” transitions from referring primarily to a physical city to having a more spiritual meaning.
The first mention of the word “Zion” in the Bible is 2 Samuel 5:7: “Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion, the City of David.” “Zion,” therefore, was originally the name of the ancient Jebusite fortress in the city of Jerusalem. “Zion” came to stand not only for the fortress but also for city in which the fortress stood. After David captured “the stronghold of Zion,” Zion was then called “the City of David” ( 1 Kings 8:1; 1 Chronicles 11:5; 2 Chronicles 5:2). When Solomon built the temple in Jerusalem, “Zion” expanded in meaning to include the temple and the area surrounding it ( Psalms 2:6; 48:2, 11-12; 132:13). “Zion” was eventually used as a name for the city of Jerusalem, the land of Judah, and the people of Israel as a whole ( Isaiah 40:9; Jeremiah 31:12; Zechariah 9:13). The most important use of the word “Zion” is in a theological sense. “Zion” is used figuratively of Israel as the people of God ( Isaiah 60:14). The spiritual meaning of “Zion” is continued in the New Testament, where it is given the Christian meaning of God's spiritual kingdom, the heavenly Jerusalem ( Hebrews 12:22; Revelation 14:1). Peter refers to Christ as the Cornerstone of Zion: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in Him will never be put to shame” ( 1 Peter 2:6).

(God) be angry.It says nothing about kissing a
Son.This is the ot these are jews.they would have
been confused as to what this psalm would be
saying.the church father jerome was aware of the
original readings and did explain why he had
translated the line differently.Once you put the
word son (in Capital letters) you have a whole
different theology.same goes when the words
Christ or Messiah is used in place of the word
annointed.When people read either of these
capitalized words right away they think Jesus
but this is not what this jewish writer meant
may god bless us all i leaning to follow him day by day hopefully I'll make my way there to him lovely kingdom and just imaging if life is so hard is it easy to make it to the lord no but just like life we must all fight, becasue that's the only way you can keep what we believe in.
